...Zuckerberg, 24, is a hot ticket on the conference circuit, and when I spoke to him, he had just returned to Palo Alto, Calif., from a major tech-industry event near San Diego. There he had been grilled yet again on whether he'd sell Facebook to Microsoft, whose minority investment gave Facebook a $15 billion valuation. (Microsoft, which tried and failed to buy Yahoo!, could use a new platform itself.) Yet again Zuckerberg said no, he's not selling out - he's just trying to build a great and viable platform and that takes time. Zuckerberg speaks...
...detainment matter? I was the first American, the first white person, the first student, and the first whose story had a twist of interest to the tech community. But in the month since I’ve been back, my translator and friend, Mohammed Salah Ahmed Maree, to whom I owe much if not most of the credit for my work there, has been behind bars...

The real villains in this film are not the merchants who supply both sides with weapons of mass destruction but filmmakers who are warping...
...world's largest manufacturer. Exports are at an all-time high, both in dollar terms ($1.6 trillion in 2007) and as a percentage of GDP (11.8%). It's just that imports have grown much faster over the years. The U.S. has continued to run surpluses in some high-tech, high-price-tag categories--aircraft, specialized industrial machines--and in agricultural commodities. It's in consumer goods--clothing, TVs, cars--that the big deficits show...
